Technical Performance
The Team Associated 12x27.5mm front shock bodies are engineered with precision manufacturing standards that Team Associated is renowned for across the entire RC industry. These shock bodies form the core component of your suspension system, housing the internal damping mechanisms and providing the structural foundation for proper spring and damper operation. Built from quality blue anodised aluminium, they offer excellent durability and lightweight performance characteristics essential for competitive RC racing across the UK and beyond. The 12x27.5mm dimensions are carefully calculated to provide optimal damping response across a wide range of track conditions, from smooth tarmac circuits to rough off-road terrain. When these components wear out through normal use, they lose their ability to maintain consistent damping, which directly impacts your car's handling, traction control and overall predictability. By fitting genuine Team Associated replacement shock bodies, you're restoring the engineering integrity of your suspension system. These components are not just cosmetic upgrades—they're critical to maintaining the performance envelope of your Team Associated RC car, whether you're running a Pro2 SC10, ProSC10, Rat, Reflex DB10 or any of the other compatible models. The blue finish provides not only a professional appearance but also helps with vehicle identification and adds a premium look to your RC car setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Team Associated RC models are compatible with AS71051 shock bodies? — These 12x27.5mm front shock bodies fit a comprehensive range of Team Associated vehicles including the ProSC10, Rat, Reflex DB10, Trophy Rat, DR10, SR10, RB10, Pro2 SC10, Pro2 LT10SW, Pro2 DK10SW, Pro2 RT10SW, SR10M Dirt Oval, RC10DR, Pro2 SC10sw RTR and RB10 Retro. If you're unsure whether your model is compatible, contact our experienced team at RC Model Shop who can confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.
- Why would I need to replace my shock bodies? — Shock bodies wear out through normal use as they house the internal damping mechanisms. Once worn, they lose the ability to maintain consistent damping action, which leads to unpredictable handling, poor traction and reduced responsiveness. Replacing them with genuine Team Associated parts restores your suspension to factory performance specifications, making this an essential maintenance item for serious racers and regular bashers alike.
- Are these genuine Team Associated parts? — Yes, absolutely. The AS71051 shock bodies are manufactured by Team Associated and sold exclusively through authorised retailers like RC Model Shop. We only stock genuine products from recognised manufacturers, so you can purchase with complete confidence in quality and compatibility. Counterfeit or imitation parts simply don't offer the same reliability or precision fit.
- How long do shock bodies typically last? — The lifespan depends on your usage intensity and driving conditions. Competitive racers may need to replace them more frequently than casual bashers, but all shock bodies eventually wear out through use. Regular inspection during maintenance sessions helps identify when replacement is needed. Having spare shock bodies on hand is smart practice for both racing and bashing setups.
- Can I install these myself? — Yes, these are straightforward replacement components. Most RC enthusiasts can install shock bodies during standard maintenance sessions using basic RC tools. However, if you're unfamiliar with suspension work, our team at RC Model Shop is happy to provide guidance or recommend a qualified technician for professional installation.
- What makes Team Associated spares the right choice? — Team Associated has engineered these components to exact specifications for your specific model, ensuring perfect fitment and performance. Genuine parts guarantee compatibility, reliability and the authentic handling characteristics your RC car was designed to deliver. Aftermarket alternatives may seem cheaper initially, but genuine Team Associated parts provide better long-term value and reliability.

- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
